A Nexus of Leading Companies and World-Class Expertise

As a gateway to continental Europe, Provence is a strategic choice for health and wellness companies. The combination of cutting-edge infrastructure and renowned business savoir-faire has created an economic environment where technological innovation and market collaborations thrive. Also, a network of elite private- and public-sector laboratories provide scientists with the best possible conditions to carry out their research. As a result, the Aix-Marseille-Provence Metropolis has emerged as an international R&D leader in areas such as:

Biotechnology & Medical Devices;

Cosmetics;

Sports & Leisure.

With one of Europe’s leading research and testing ecosystems and an abundance of the high quality raw materials, it is no surprise that a number of major international cosmetics brands have been created in Provence.

Meanwhile, the area’s sports and leisure economy has also been the source of remarkable growth in recent years. Provence has deep-rooted sporting traditions and the presence of research labs and university departments dedicated to the science of sport has given the region an enormous advantage in the field. Local success stories like Gymnova, Beuchat, and Shark are already making an impact on the international market while the fact that Marseille was named the European Capital of Sport in 2017 is further proof of the vitality and importance of the sports economy.

Decision makers, business leaders, and entrepreneurs, by working with the health and wellness ecosystem in Provence you will benefit from partnership opportunities and a market dynamic that will propel your project to success.
